Resuming US Applications & SAT | GRE | IELTS classes

We the nation are going through an unprecedented moment of student uprising that Bangladesh has seen in the past 54 years. The amount of bloodshed we are witnessing among students and scale of atrocities by police and similar agencies will live in our memories till the last day of our lives. 

    Today our first responsibility is to the students' safety and fulfilment of their demands. However, at the same time we need to work towards a future where everyone will live with dignity. There is no other option but to continue our work as a learner, as an educator. 

    We were unable to continue all our classes because we felt that this is not the moment for learning. Now that the student movement has reached a stage of one-point-demand, we want to stay at home and resume of our works so that when we can keep some links with our remaining tasks.
